Since I can’t currently afford to buy a scooter I have been forced to find alternate transportation. Photo courtesy of Didier.
 
I've heard if you modify the gears and use titanium rims with steel tires you can actually get better APM. By simply replacing the concrete blocks with this modification you also ease up on the silting effect when crusing the bottom. Filling the frame with a light alloy and using rubber mudder style tires filled with helium allows you to do a neutrally buoyant cruise however.
 
...is that on the Indra? Nevermind...must be at the quarry...at least the Indra had decent vis...
 
I'd sure like to know what that perch was thinking!
 
If I had $200 I'd sign up for PADI Underwater Cyclist Training.
 
The $200 is for the PADI "Cycling Adventure Dive" The PADI dual wheel aqueous motivator specialty is $350. Course requirements includes classroom, pool sessions with training wheels, and four dives.

I hate to be the one to point this out... but the equipment is obviously DIW.... I mean come on folks... look at those brake cables sticking out there just waiting to snag something... this is pure barn yard stuff!!!

A proper DIR bike has coaster brakes... you don't need this fancy crap!
